Tasting Notes

Details

Medium weight, alive, muscular, power-packed. No extra sensory perception required, it's 100% gale force Islay. A rediscovery of hand-made single malt & the way it used to be. All the aromas found on the nose are swept onto the palate with incredible peat-fire warmth, filling the heart with passion. It's young whisky and old skills in absolute harmony; not for the feint-hearted
